The project studies three important domains which highlight physical Human-Robot Interaction involved in assisting humans in the home and workplace: (1) human guidance through cluttered environments using physical contact, (2) cooperative carrying of large objects through complex and dynamic environments, and (3) robot assisted sitting and getting up. This is accomplished through the evolution of an experimental single-wheel mobility platform into an autonomous robot that is instructed and guided by people in a natural way.Such systems are needed in many public health domains, including care for the elderly, rehabilitation and assistive programs. Project results are incorporated into coursework offered by two different departments at CMU, and exposes students to unique robot planning, control and Human-Robot Interaction issues. High school students are introduced to this area as part of the Andrew Leap program. Students from underrepresented groups participate through the ARTSI program. Results may be presented in cooperation with museums or entertainment companies.

该项目研究了三个重要领域，其中突出了在家庭和工作场所协助人类的物理人机交互：（1）使用物理接触通过杂乱环境的人类指导，（2）通过复杂和动态环境的大型物体的合作携带，以及（3）机器人辅助坐下和起床。 这是通过将一个实验性的单轮移动平台演变成一个自主机器人来实现的，该机器人可以由人以自然的方式进行指导和引导。许多公共卫生领域都需要这样的系统，包括老年人护理，康复和辅助计划。项目结果被纳入CMU两个不同部门提供的课程，并让学生接触到独特的机器人规划，控制和人机交互问题。 高中学生被介绍到这个地区作为安德鲁飞跃计划的一部分。 来自代表性不足群体的学生通过ARTSI计划参加。 结果可能会与博物馆或娱乐公司合作展示。
